Opportunity Information: Apply for PAS CHISINAU FY19 06 CULTURAL

The CULTURAL SMALL GRANTS PROGRAM (Funding Opportunity Number PAS CHISINAU FY19 06 CULTURAL) is a discretionary grant opportunity offered by the U.S. Department of State, U.S. Mission to Moldova, through the Cultural Affairs Section of the U.S. Embassy in the Republic of Moldova. The program is designed to strengthen mutual understanding between Moldovans and Americans by supporting cultural and people-to-people initiatives that build professional, academic, and creative connections. The Embassy emphasizes activities that create networking and partnerships between Moldovan and U.S. professionals, with a particular focus on music, sports, and the arts as practical ways to deepen cultural ties and collaborative relationships.

Funding is available through the Cultural Small Grants Fund for projects that clearly promote U.S.-Moldova mutual understanding and demonstrate a distinctly U.S. component. In practice, that U.S. element could involve participation by American artists, coaches, performers, educators, or cultural organizations; programming that highlights American cultural perspectives or expertise; or structured collaboration between U.S. and Moldovan partners. The opportunity is broad in the types of activities it can support, including (but not limited to) coaching workshops, exhibitions, performances, and creative collaborations, as long as the project meaningfully connects U.S. and Moldovan participants and contributes to sustained cultural engagement rather than a purely local event without U.S. involvement.

The grant instrument type is a standard grant, and the funding activity category is listed as “Other,” with details provided in the program description rather than a single conventional category. The opportunity is associated with CFDA number 19.040. The maximum award amount (award ceiling) is $25,000, and the Embassy anticipated making about 10 awards under this competition. The notice was created on February 15, 2019, and the original application closing date was March 19, 2019. Eligibility is indicated as “Others,” meaning applicants would need to consult the full announcement and any attached “Related Documents” for the specific eligibility rules and any additional requirements, suggested project formats, evaluation criteria, or application instructions.
